"The future of radiation oncology and stopping cancer in its track is now at Mount Sinai. This is the best treatment available for tumors that have spread to the spine with the least risk of damage to surrounding healthy tissue," said Dr. Sheryl Green, Co-Director of The Radiosurgery Program and Assistant Professor of Radiation Oncology at Mount Sinai. "We are now able to treat metastatic cancer that has spread to the spine, increasing the patients' quality of life, keeping them functional and pain free for a longer amount of time with this new technology. The biggest benefit of Novalis is that it's the most conformal type of tumor treatment available at the present time."
About SRS
The state of the art 3-D imaging guided SRS system called Novalis Shaped Beam Surgery System works by concentrating the energy of many different beams of radiation on a single site. None of the beams individually, is strong enough to harm the healthy tissue is passes through, but at the point where the beams converge- the site of tumor- their combined power can destroy the abnormal cells and interfere with their ability to multiply, thus shrinking and controlling the growth of cancer. SRS matches the shape of the beam to the size of the tumor no matter where it is, delivering radiation with more precision than any other system.
